Congrats Chris! A 1968, a very good year. I still have your Hills Brothers can o' bolts.
Did you buy it? I thought you were in Hawaii right now.

Looks familiar, were you considering that one awhile back? Awesome if you pulled the trigger! Looks like a beauty!

Yeah. I'd been waffling on it a little. Mostly due to lack of funds. The guy waited for me, which is way cool. It's pretty much unmolested. I'm going to have the seat guy on here re-do the bench upholstery and probably take it out to Jeremiah for some bodywork. The rear sill is shot. I'm planning to stay with the patina look. Right now it is 3 on the tree, but I want to put a 4-speed in it and front disk brakes and power steering. I'm excited!Looks familiar, were you considering that one awhile back?

Good on ya, Chris. Seeing you work your ass off in that 40 at the Rubithon in 2008 was something I'll never forget. Glad that this deal has worked out for you and hope to see you either around town or on the trail in your new rig.

I heard that Mark Algazy has the "four on the tree" kit. That way we both can stay groovy. My aunt Ruth had a 66' Galaxie 500 with column shift, She could lay a patch!

Well, brought this thing home Saturday. Has anyone on here done the body panel replacement? It's going to need some work. Luckily, the floors are in good shape.
